Meanwhile, a poorly-disguised lobbyist for the hotel industry weighs in on the proposed changes. Apparently all the new units that will be constructed will become AirBNBs and Vrbo units, who knew?

If you want a few laughs, go to the hotel review sites like Tripadvisor and others that have reviews of the Hampton Inn and the Hilton in the relatively new Brunswick St redevelopment, both of which were used by HRM as homeless shelters recently. I feel sorry for the tourists that were booked there and put up with what they describe, with nightmarish conditions for paying guests thanks to zero attention by hotel management and staff to the black eye it gave both their facility and the city overall as a tourist destination. Apparently once the homeless moved in, housekeeping and janitorial personnel were either overwhelmed or simply moved out. I cannot imagine any of those visitors saying nice things to their friends about HRM once returning home. Perhaps Ms Grant-Fiander should worry about that instead.
